Why is it we always have basketball scores but never results from wrestling? Why this love affair with basketball? Is it too much to ask that wrestling gets just a little attention?

I'll bet if you supplied the data and / or resources for the data to my man @Alum-Ni he would post them. He is better than any newspaper as far as compiling & publishing stats. As others have stated wrestling is not as easy to gather data on.

Looks like billybob took up your challenge and is posting this weekend's results now. Actually it is not too hard to find wrestling results. The Trackwrestling site posts results of every dual and tourney in the state (and most other states) in real time, as schools are required to use this service to run events.

there is a semi regular poster on here named @Husker Hank (goes by Hankster). one of the biggest grappling fans I've ever seen. in fact, him and I wrestled together in high school in the late 70s. Hank was the weakest and scrawniest kid on the team (103 lbs) but had the heart of the lion and grappled his heart out. we still get together several times per year in small saloons and bars throughout western Nebraska to reminisce, get drunk, and pound the faces of basketball fans into the concrete.

I like both sports but that post was as odd as it gets

Do you guys wear your singlets under your clothes when bar hopping?

Haven't been on in a number of years, but last I recall they had separate forums for each of the sports...including wrestling.
